JGC and Asahi Kasei have launched renewable ammonia production at the Namie Green Ammonia Integrated Control System Demonstration Field (NAMICS) in Fukushima, featuring a 10MW alkaline electrolysis plant. The project aims to supply renewable ammonia to local thermal power stations for flue-gas denitration, while insights gained will support a larger pilot plant for green chemical production planned for fiscal 2027. Resonac Corporation is also involved, leveraging Japan’s subsidies for low-carbon hydrogen production.
